Enough Failures to Go Around

Kentucky Republican Senator Mitch McConnell included the following as part of his opposition statement to the bailout proposal for the auto industry, "We simply cannot ask the American taxpayer to subsidize failure." With that the bill to aid the industry was defeated.

However Mr. McConnell and friends already did subsidize failure by giving our taxpayer money to the banking industry. His statement is thereby reprehensible and absurd. Our leaders seem to forget their responsibilities and instead go for the quick sound-bite and 'photo op' in an attempt to show they are on our side and have a handle on things. In fact they do not and therefore nothing gets done. To gift $700 billion to institutions that squandered countless billions earlier without stipulation is irresponsible and criminal. As a result the money has not helped the economy. It sits in the pockets of greedy bankers and immoral CEOs to use as they please.

Both sides of the aisle and both houses of Congress are to blame for the continued sconomic nightmare. Where is the leadership we expect? The Big Three auto makers produce cars. Lately they have done a terrible job and are in immediate danger of going into chapter 7 liquidation. Obviously they are a collective failure. But cannot the same be said of Congress?

When Mr. McConnell's party took control of the White House in 2001 they inherited a surplus of $230 billion. Since then they have produced a deficit that now totals $800 billion. As of this moment the US National Debt Clock shows a total owed of $10.6 TRILLION. That is almost $35,000 for every man woman and child in America! I would therefore consider that a huge indisputable failure and yet we continue to subsidize Congress. After all how are they paid? Their salaries come from our tax dollars! And once they are out of Congress they and their families have healthcare for life, not to mention many other taxpayer paid benefits.

As a citizen I would hope for a more intelligent approach to our problems than having the pot call the kettle black. In this environment that is incredibly unproductive.

OMG LOOK AT IT GO!!!
Every year I have been hoping we would lower the number but somehow we still dump more Earth killing plastic into the environment.
We hit 130 Billion in 2010.
Then 129.5 Billion in 2011.
In 2012 - 129.05 Billion.
2013 was back up to 129.06 Billion.
Now we are in 2015 and on pace to only toss out 129.048 Billion.
Not great but it's in the right direction.
Hop ewe lower the number before it's too late!
PLEASE DO BETTER IN 2016!

FOWL RETRIBUTION

I SWEAR IT WAS SELF DEFENSE! NOW LET'S EAT! HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY!

Editor's Note:

I miss the good old days when our leaders at least made an attempt to govern. These days all they seem to do is campaign for re-election the day after they get into office! They are funded by special interest groups and multinational humongously profitable corporations who could lower our deficit drastically if they just paid their fair share of taxes.

An honest buck for an honest day's work is also a relic of the past.

And while Gordon Gekko's "Greed is good" phrase may not be politically correct it sure as hell is a political way of life!

YOU ARE HERE

ABSOLUTE TRUTH!

HUMOR OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS!

WAR ON CHRISTMAS?

America - Love it OR DIE!

Does the GOP think poor people should die?
While we in America hope that we have separated Church and State obviously that never actually happens. But when the people who run or try to run the country act like mindless uncaring barbarians should we not wish them to have just a modicum of compassion?
These people consider themselves religious?

NEVER MORE TRUE THAN NOW

WHEN WILL AMERICANS WAKE UP?

About Me

I am very organized and logical, sometimes to a fault and also opinionated, as are we all. I love humor and have a strange sense of it. I try to be funny without being too stupid and annoying but sometimes fail. Perhaps too many things upset me but for the most part I try to turn them into humorous pieces.I have a great wife (attorney - Sue) and two great kids (Sara - Neuro-psychology & Rich - Writer/Blogger.)
